Para conocer elcomportamiento y manejo del SCA en los países emergentes, entre Enero del 2007 y Enero del 2009 serealizó el estudio ACCESS (ACute Coronary Events Strategies Survey) para evaluar los mecanismos deestratificación del riesgo, patrones de práctica clínica, manejo, en un año, entre los pacientes reclutados en Guatemala, el SCA fue confirmado en 289 casos 37 IMSEST, 188 IMCEST y 64 con angina inestable.
